Viking is a Norse warrior and seafarer aesthetic drawing on Scandinavian culture of the 8th to 11th centuries, filtered through both historical research and popular media, and celebrating braided hair, fur, leather, and Norse mythology. The 'Vikings' TV series and related media brought it back into wide view. Rough-hewn linen or wool tunics and trousers come in undyed earth tones. Leather bracers and belts carry bronze hardware. Faux or real fur-trimmed cloaks go over the top. Leather or wooden bead jewelry uses rune motifs, worn with braided hair, sometimes beaded, and sturdy leather boots.
